Dispute Parish

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A dispute parish - a historical problem in Vogtland - was until 1845 a parish or parish , which is trials and disputes between landlords and feudal lords , specifically the King of Bavaria (and previously under Brandenburg-Kulmbach and Bayreuth ) the and Saxony gave. It was about the right to fill the pastoral position - called Kollaturrecht - as well as the patronage right , i.e. whether and how the pastor of Saxony or Bavaria (Hofer Pfaffenscheffel) is paid. According to Pastor Max Allwill Bühring's “Sächsische Kirchengalerie” from November 1910, Eichigt belonged to the so-called controversial parishes with the parishes in Großzöbern , Krebes , Misslareuth , Sachsgrün , Wiedersberg and the (since 1815) Prussian enclave Gefell .

The municipality of Eichigt, for example, was a branch of the Hof parish church of St. Lorenz, founded in 1082 . With the Reformation , the responsibilities changed. In the inheritance book of the Voigtsberg office it is written in 1542, "The pastor Eichich goes from pastor to feudal farm". As a result, Oelsnitz was responsible for the parish, but the filling of the pastor's position and the briefing of the pastor were always carried out jointly by the superintendents from Hof ​​and Oelsnitz. Those in charge in Saxony had their problems with the fact that the parishes were usually occupied by a clergyman from Bavaria , as was the case in connection with the "hospitable reception" of Baron Adolph von Lützow in the Eichigt parsonage on his campaign after Pastor Wirth, who became famous in Bayreuth, was the case. Only a short time later he retired to Bavaria.

The problem was resolved as follows: On November 8 and 11, 1844, an agreement was concluded and drawn up by the government plenipotentiaries on both sides, subject to royal ratifications. "In order to settle the errors that have arisen between the Crown of Saxony and the Kingdom of Bavaria about the so-called parishes in dispute and about the assignment of the Pfaffenscheffel slope to which the Crown of Bavaria is entitled to the Crown of Saxony by means of a cheap settlement and amicable union, commissioners have been appointed and that the King of Saxony of Amtshauptmann Hans Guido Hugo Schütz to Plauen , the King of Bavaria, the Government Franz Joseph fire to Bayreuth have concluded that the following according plowed bargaining agreement until Almighty ratification: cession of the crown Bayern right of patronage on the so-called dispute parishes in the Kingdom of Saxony to the Crown of Saxony, etc. ”As a result of the negotiations there was an application by the Royal Bavarian Court of 1812“ for cession of the patronage rights exercised over several royal Saxon parishes and a dam it under the name pfaffenscheffel associated pension ”.

This state treaty, which contains the mutual agreements in 21 paragraphs, was ratified on March 12, 1845. A verbatim copy of this contract by the chancellery of the Ministry of Culture in Dresden, handed over on May 6, 1845, is (1010, ed.) In the local parish archive (zu Eichigt, ed.). According to Art. 12, 13, 15, the crown Bayern attributable in Saxon places Pfaff bushel Gefäll 77 is Scheffel 2/8 10 degree grain, 1 Scheffel 6/8 - measure of barley, 56 bushels 5/8 14 degree Haber, Althöfer Contemporary to axes ceded and together with the amount of 15 cruisers Frankish or 18 3/4 Kreuzer Rhine from the manor Troschenreuth against a calculated according to the standards of the existing of the Kingdom of Saxony Transfer Act of 17 March 1832 remuneration of 13,173 thaler 22 Ngr. 5 Pfg. Or 23054 Gulden 3 3/4 cross. Left Rhenish. "

The Saxon villages that had to pay the Pfaff bushels were: Berglas , Blosenberg , Dehles , Ebersberg , Eichigt , Gassenreuth , Grobau , Gutenfürst , Heinersgrün , Kemnitz , Krebes , Loddenreuth , Misslareuth , Posseck , Ramoldsreuth , Reinhardt Walde , Ruderitz , Sachs Green , Troschenreuth and Großzöbern .

“With the transfer of the patronage right to the Crown of Saxony, the occupation of the (arguing parishes, as well as the local (Eichigte) parish with clergymen who were either of Franconian origin or who were transferred here from Bavaria and who, on the other hand, moved from here to Bavarian positions . ??
